Description
Schecter Damien Platinum-7 Guitar Satin Black B-Stock 0322
The Damien Platinum-7 is built for seven-string players who demand speed and comfort across an extended 26.5″ scale neck. Its thin 'C' neck profile and 16″ fretboard radius lock in smooth lateral movement and aggressive bending, while the satin black finish grips your hand and keeps its professional look through rigorous gigging. This is a workhorse instrument engineered for modern metal and progressive styles, backed by Schecter's track record for reliability and consistent build quality.
Playability & Feel
The thin 'C' neck shape—measuring .787″ at the 1st fret and .866″ at the 12th fret—sits naturally in your hand without compromising stability. The 24 X-Jumbo frets on a 16″ radius rosewood fingerboard respond to both precision fretting and hard-hitting bends, while the 1.889″ nut width spaces the seven strings so your fingers move freely without collision.
Tone & Electronics
The EMG-81 at the bridge and EMG-85 at the neck deliver tight, high-output articulation with a clean noise floor—essential for punchy rhythm definition and cutting lead lines on stage. The 9-volt clip-in battery keeps these active electronics powered through long sets, and the Tune-O-Matic bridge with string-thru-body design locks your tuning and maximizes sustain.
